Speaking at Zee Digital Conclave 2023, the dynamic Oyo Rooms founder, Ritesh Agarwal, shared some profound entrepreneurship lessons that are especially pertinent given the present state of Indian companies. Agarwal’s thoughts highlight the shifting reality of entrepreneurship in India by drawing on his own experiences and the development of the startup ecosystem in India.
He continued, “India’s startup environment was still in its infancy ten years ago. Access to money, materials, and networks was highly restricted to a small group of people. The road to connect with possible investors, partners, talent, and customers for an aspiring entrepreneur without any prior relationships inside this ecosystem was nothing short of a Herculean task”.
Agarwal does note that the ecology has changed considerably over time. Established founders and operators are now giving back more actively, creating an ecosystem that helps aspiring businesspeople notwithstanding their upbringing, level of education, or money. Today, one’s determination to follow an idea with unwavering dedication is the secret to winning support.
He unveiled his success mantra i.e. 3D — Desire, Devotion, and Diligence. Responding to a question in the rapid-fire round of the conclave, he also revealed his secrets. He says I’m eating the same breakfast for 5 years. There are two changes in due course and i.e. Daliya and Oats.
Responding to the question of the host i.e. “You inspired so many, who is your inspiration?” The self-made billionaire said “So many people inspired me. If I have to name someone in the entrepreneurial world, I think one that I always think about is Uday Kotak. He is first generation entrepreneur, done well. His entire team has been with him ever since he started his company.”
